• ... that Piri's first two singles, "It's a Match" and "soft spot", were both released on DistroKid?
  • ALT1: ... that Piri's self-produced music video for "Soft Spot" features her performing against her bedroom wall to projected "trippy liquid visuals" she found on YouTube?
  • ALT2: ... that you're in my soft spot?

QPQ: - Not done
Overall: @Launchballer: Article created on May 25, nominated 4 days later and is long enough. All hooks are interesting and cited, I prefer either ALT1 or ALT2. I don't think the entire quote from freshonthenet.co.uk should be included as copyvio flags a 41% similarity. QPQ not done. Sebbirrrr (talk) 00:21, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/2023 Anheuser-Busch boycott; that similarity score is a false positive, as the quote is fully sourced.--Launchballer 08:07, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

@Launchballer: Apologies, I didn't realize there were a couple more quotes cited from the source. QPQ has been provided so this is good to go. Sebbirrrr (talk) 16:54, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

I would like to go on record as saying I prefer ALT2, on the grounds that a similar hook for On & on (piri & tommy song) did extremely well, though I'm happy for either to be used.--Launchballer 10:36, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

Striking ALT2. Doesn't make any sense as a standalone hook per DYK Talk, even as a quirky. Too late for April Fool's Day but wouldn't make sense for April Fool's Day either. Cielquiparle (talk) 17:00, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

Is the name of the artist supposed to be "Piri" or "piri"? Both Soft Spot (song) and Piri predominantly use the uppercase "Piri", but I do see occasional instances of "piri". I recommend consistency as much as possible. If "Piri" is the best approach, the hooks should be modified accordingly. Edge3 (talk) 04:11, 5 July 2023 (UTC)

She stylises everything in lowercase, which I discovered after nomination that policy says we should ignore.--Launchballer 06:47, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
